So as I go through the list and synopsis of all the episodes of GOT as a sort of re-telling of the story, I've decided that I can split them into about 3 tiers.
There are probably 25 truly excellent episodes; stuff that is a testament to what Television can be if you put the time, money and effort into it.
There are a hair over 30 'fine' episodes. They work. They don't actively suck and when considered in concert with the rest of the series, they're more than adequate. If they don't bring up the brand, they certainly don't hurt it.
There are about 15 that just flat-out sucked.
And I think that if you polled 100 GoT fans, they'd actually come up with a similar breakdown but weirdly, they'd pick different episodes than I would.
That's a pretty solid ratio, really. Better than most. And season 5 has the majority of those clunkers (man season 5 was bad).
